Thank you for this lovely senryu. The syllable count is right, and I appreciated your 'pun.' The presentation works well, and the subject is one of eternal praise,

Haha, this is the first time I can't fuss at someone about the difference between "peeked" and "piqued" (not to mention "peaked," lol) because you have those eyes!!! I'm an English teacher when I'm not writing, so the urge is always in my brain.

Well done. You've got my vote.

Ah...it took me a moment.
"Peaked" (or the proper usage in this instance), verses peeked ( for the double entendre), I get it, LOL...
Very witty and clever.
Your syllable count is perfect too, well within the limits set for senryu.
You got my vote!
Best of luck the rest of the way...

Good job, my friend. Your syllable count is correct and the emotion is love. Your connection between lines one and two are good.

Well done my friend. Good luck in the contest.

This is a very well written senyru you have penned for the prompt. You used very good descriptive wording and the picture went so well with it. Blessings, Teri

This is a fine entry for the senryu contest
with the exact syllables of the traditional form at 5-7-5
Excellent imagery in the eyes
and nice third line linking back to sight
Perfect picture to match
Well done
Good luck in the contest

Love at first sight. Not sure I believe in that concept but makes for romantic stories and poetry. :) Is "peeked" a play on words? That the eyes peeked/piqued my curiosity. Neat.

Small typo in the first line: afar is one word.

Those eyes from a far
peeked my curiosity
'twas love at first sight

    Ha! Yes it's afar lol. Not sure how that got away from my line of sight. And yes, peeked is a play on words. I love that you got that. I fear many won't. Thank you for the awesome review.
    God bless!
